arm64: trap to EL1 accesses to AMU counters from EL0
The activity monitors extension is an optional extension introduced by the ARMv8.4 CPU architecture. In order to access the activity monitors counters safely, if desired, the kernel should detect the presence of the extension through the feature register, and mediate the access. Therefore, disable direct accesses to activity monitors counters from EL0 (userspace) and trap them to EL1 (kernel). To be noted that the ARM64_AMU_EXTN kernel config does not have an effect on this code. Given that the amuserenr_el0 resets to an UNKNOWN value, setting the trap of EL0 accesses to EL1 is always attempted for safety and security considerations. Therefore firmware should still ensure accesses to AMU registers are not trapped in EL2/EL3 as this code cannot be bypassed if the CPU implements the Activity Monitors Unit.
